In The Kitchen - French Toast

One of Matt's favorite breakfast dishes is french toast. So over the years I've played around with different recipes until I decided this was the best one. We don't have it often, but when we do it's a real treat.

With french toast the egg mixture you dunk your bread into is essentially a custard. It's that custard and the use of french bread that makes this so yummy. This recipe will use a full loaf, you can cut the recipe in half if needed. We serve it with butter and warmed maple syrup. Enjoy!

You will need .... 
4 cups Unsweetened Almond Milk *
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons sugar 
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice **
1 loaf french bread

Slice bread on a diagonal. 



Mix milk, egg, sugar, vanilla and spice with a whisk until well blended.



After heating large frying pan to medium and coating with butter or cooking spray, dip each slice of bread into egg mixture to coat both sides. 

 

Cook until browned all over then flip and do other side.

 

Repeat until all slices are cooked. 



* I use almond milk, but you can use regular milk or half & half.
** I like pumpkin pie spice, but you can use apple pie spice or just cinnamon.
